Players not being able to maximize their earning powers during their most productive years is.... a good thing somehow?

The price of gas is a reason to live in Houston? Not exactly a ringing endorsement.

[City name] strong is the woooooooorrrrrrrrrrrsssst!

I tuned in at the bottom of the 8th. First bit of baseball I’d seen since the final Cubs regular season day game that my coworkers had on at the office. I don’t watch baseball if I can help it.

Is it a bad time to remind Astro’s fans that Houston is an awful place to live, run by conservative idiots?

Is this a joke post? Bomani is not only an atheist, he openly belittles believers who get on his case about it on Twitter. He’s about as open as can be about it.

The hell you say! Tom Brady would never be tricked by a con man!

You gotta hydrate to avoid those October sunburns in Massachusetts.

You know what ISN’T satisfying? Seeing this use of quotation marks.

Just enjoy the last years of the greatest QB cheater of all time.

The sunburn bit is the biggest bit of bullshit in all of this to me. That’s hilariously stupid.
